not everyone have good eyes, to me the car looks exacty the same as the official pics, just with different ride height and wheels off set, for those who say it looks like 430, thats what the camo for to hide the cures and create the 430 major lines

Hilarious...... I posted ale75's pic over on Ferrarichat and there are guys there saying it looks nothing like the car in the official pics and that it is simply another test mule. They are also saying the front grille is a different shape. It's amazing how many people just cannot assimilate information from a photograph without having referenced the original object in person first.
Here are the two pics for comparison. Plain as day that it's simply a black 458 with a bit of white tape over it to try to disguise the shape. Interesting that it appeared so soon after the official pics and that there are no Ferrari test drivers in sight on what appears to be a rural road. Ferrari "leaking" pics to keep up internet interest in their new car......... now how could I suggest or even think such a thing
Huh. Am I the only one who thinks that black 458 on Alex pic look pretty good anyway?
As Rossi correctly pointed out on official pics car looks way too lower then it really is...

true, I'm sure the car will be amazing in the metal. and regarding the nose-lift, that wouldn't be such a bad move IMHO

Those were the pics I posted above, but now they're gone? 
The secret of life is to admire without desiring.

Love it, but why did they leave the side skirts... white ?
It's less obvious on this pic though :
I think they are more likely to be satin matt anthracite in reality, and just appear white in those pics because they are highlighted by the sun.

I like the interior better than the exterior. Contrary to most, the more I see this car the less I like it.
Kreso's front end shot gave me pause.
Nick,
I got some very nice printed shots of 458 Italia(all are high rez from Style video from 458 Italia special site) and I can tell you one thing-this car is truly something special. It looks modern and retains all Ferrari Heritage at the same time. I will have one for sure.
I like interior as well-it is unique looking, unlike some other brands were all interiors are more or less the same.

I like everything except the front - looks like the front end of all the recent Citroen concept cars.
Many manufacturers overstyle the front end ( face ) because the rest of the vehicle is basically anonymous without a badge .
But c'mon Ferrari/Pininfarina, this is an otherwise beautiful car so why did you have to do this ? IMO, it would have looked nicer- not to mention enhancing the width and lowness of the car- to break the headlamp line it at the level of the front edge of the fender vent but extend it below the wedge- shaped hood vent. Someone should PS that . 
Enmanuel:
That is one gorgeous car. The more I see it the more I love it.
It's having the opposite effect on me. LOVED the first shots, now not so much. Agree w/ Nick, going to have to see it in person but the front bonnet/hood is making me appreciate the 430's, the 458's bonnet looks like someone slammed the bonnet on something in the trunk.. The interior looks okay but was hoping for something more,,,,,,,,more even like the 599 but the interior w/ Ferrari is all about quality of materials & craftsmanship / touch/feel- things that don't come through via pictures.
